Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors put in around 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry programs are located within these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received extensive medical training with a focus on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to treat difficulties ranging from basic ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more sophisticated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which provide them the experience crucial to conduct surgery on those complications that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous troubles which the feet commonly experience.
